None of that, but I still walk with a waddle. I broke my hip bone in 3 places years ago, giving birth naturally has made me feel like I broke it again. Dr is sending me to physical therapy twice a week for 3 months, so hopefully that'll help. Some days I'm in more pain than others, but that's my only remaining "symptom" from pregnancy

Weirdly, my *feet* are killing me. Never had this with other pregnancies, but it's like the relaxin hit my feet *hard* this time and they just haven't recovered. I've spent my whole life prefering to be barefoot, and all of a sudden I *dread* walking from my bed to the bathroom without supportive shoes on! I've never heard of such a thing -- but it's wretched!

Otherwise, I'm simply still fat, sigh, but I think that one will just take a little more time to deal with. :)

Me too!! Baby moved my tailbone during labor and it didn't go back the way it was supposed to! I saw a physical therapist (who basically told me to do kegals) and a chiropractor (who said my hips were out of alignment and popped them back)!
